thanks , that's a helpful link. I like the idea of using manager app do the reload for you.. for eg: http://localhost:8080/manager/reload?path=/examples
Is there a way to make mvn tomcat plugin to use tomcat v6 in this case, instead of tomcat 5.5. Since I would rather like to work in tomcat 6 than tomcat 5.5 And i notice the mvn script downloads tomcat's related jars (just like any other dependency in pom.xml) in C:\Documents and Settings\<user-name>\.m2\repository\tomcat (on windows box). a) how can I make it download tomcat 6 stuff instead of tomcat 5.5 b) secondly, I noticed, at this link that explains how to set up manager application access http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/manager-howto.html#Configuring%20Manager%20Application%20Access its asking for Catalina_base and Catalina_home variables etc. Where in the above path (m2 repository) would be my catalina_base and Catalina_home. c) is there some way that I can make the maven build script put the stuff in my locally installed tomcat v6 server (say c:\tomcat6\webapps) . In that case, I can easily setup the hot deploy stuff using the link provided by yitzle. thanks a lot in advance for all the helpful pointers provided so far, robin yitzle wrote: > > Did you look at > http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/deployer-howto.html#Deploying%20on%20a%20running%20Tomcat%20server > ? > > Also view: > http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/manager-howto.html#Reload%20An%20Existing%20Application > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/-s2-hot-deploy-java-and-struts.xml-changes-in-tomcat-tf3842451.html#a10882353 Sent from the Struts - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
